I sold 49 dollars on subscription, but they haven't paid for 3 months. I get paid with payoneer from other sites, but motionelements doesn't pay. For 2 months, support has not even replied to my e-mail. Now I think it's SCAM.

Could Mavic 3 be an alternative for both drones? It depends where you want to travel to, but for example here in Europe it just got the C1 certification label and you don't need to keep distance from people any more, which makes flying much simpler. But it still has to be registered..

It's the registration that's causing the issue for my upcoming trip. The Australian Aviation website won't let me register in advance, and also insists that uploaded ID has to be certified by a solicitor before upload or that I get my ID certified on arrival. The Mini is small enough that it doesn't require registration, so makes travelling with a drone much easier, (provided the quality is there).

actually even drones under 250g has to be registred because of the camera....

I'm selling video pretty much in all major agencies.
And all across the board almost no sales this January so far.

Anyone else encountered this??

I would say you absolutely do. Just think for a moment about all those important features that are visible and eminently recognizable - eyes, hairline, eyebrows, ears, not to mention other parts of the body.

Debates about this sort of thing happened many times - someone whose image was taken from behind but with lots of detail, for example - and the answer was almost always that if the person was the primary subject of the image, you need a model release.

If the person is in the distance, out of focus, not the main subject of the image and masked, then you're probably fine. But I doubt that's what you were asking about

I want to sell my video on this site by subscription. Who already has such experience, what kind of income is there, normal or not worth wasting time?

I am curious if anyone is up scaling images for stock?
I have some smaller images and I was thinking about this.

My first DSLR was a Fuji Finepix S2. As far i remember it was a 6 MP DSLR upscaled to 12MP in camera.
Was some kind of marketing gag.
I don't use the Fuji S2 anymore, but i still use an 12MP full frame DSLR. Great quality especially for long exposure landscape photography.
in my experience real 12 MP images still sell well. I can process 12 MP Raw files like crazy and still get over 90% of my 12 MP images accepted.
I have to process Raw files of my 45MP DSLR more carefully.
I even think that i could use only 12MP for microstock. Maybe i would sell something less but not much less.
At macro stock things are different, they want at least 12 MP, but less than 24MP doesn't make much sense there.
At microstock i wouldn't bother about uploading 12MP files.

Wow that is awful. It is exactly the thing I was talking about and they have dozens of other examples on the site right now. As well as other people on the forum complaining about and describing the exact same thing! Outrageous (and unsurprising)

Yes I can see my account right now, but I can not close because I have message I must paid almost $1,300.00 I already deactivate 61 listings from store what is not main. Everything start this November, I did not use Etsy couple years just get emai from billing department last week . I can not even respond because I need code, someone set it up triple protection..  Really Catch 22, no code no log in, no log in no communication. Not really easy
